Gone cruising... see you on the 9th!
GeneralThe bags are packed and we are heading to Galveston tomorrow morning at 5am to board the Carnival Conquest. We will be hitting Jamaica on Wednesday, Grand Cayman on Thursday and Cozumel on Friday, returning Sunday the 9th.
If you are thinking "didn't he just do that?", well yeah... last June with our entire family. On the last day on the ship, my wife won a raffle for another 7 night cruise for 2, so we decided to do the exact same trip, only without the kiddos this time. A couple from our neighborhood will also be joining us.
Since we aren't pushing a stroller around and have a bit more freedom at our ports of call, we booked some great excursions. In Montego Bay, we will be doing the zip line canopy tour, hauling butt through the trees while harnessed to a set of pulleys. My brother-in-law and his kids did this on our last cruise and they said it was really awesome.
In Grand Cayman, we are going to start out our day parasailing 400' in the air along the shoreline, followed by the remainder of the day at 7 Mile Beach, where I spent the day last time. This is a really beautiful spot.
In Cozumel, we are doing the Sail, Snorkle and Beach Party excursion (here after known as the booze cruise). We took this one last time and holy cow.... I do remember parts of it. In essence they take about 50 people out on a 60 foot catamaran with 50 gallons of margaritas and free beer. I ended up in drunken kayak races, a beach volleyball game and we had a hell of a time at Carlos and Charlies and Senor Frogs when we got back to the docks.
If anyone needs anything (World Wild Web/InstantSpot.com) business while I am gone, get in touch with Aaron as he will be the lone guy holding down the fort. I am supposed to have internet access for the week, so I will probably be checking email occassionally, and plan on sending back some videos for my kids here on my blog, but don't count on hearing from me about any work. :)
...talk to you soon!
